5 Current Obsessions

Have you ever said to yourself "I don't see what all the rants and raves are about that sweater or those shoes"? Well I have caught myself saying that a lot and just had to give in to a few items that I have seen my friends sporting around lately. And boy was I wrong about not wanting to purchases these items sooner! Below are a few of my recent finds that I just have to rave about, because well, they are the best.

1. These boots are the perfect shoe for this time of year and oh so chic. At first I thought they looked like just another typical boot but they are far from it! They look great paired with leggings, skinny jeans or even a dress! They also have a full length zipper on that back which makes them easy to put on and take off. And who doesn't love a pair of shoes on sale? Alyssa and I were lucky enough to get them this past weekend when they were on sale for $28.00! I am even wearing them as we speak and couldn't be happier with the way they fit and feel on my feet.

2. I am in love with this sweater and am not lying when I say that I have worn it more then a handful of times since I purchased it about two weeks ago. The color above is called Peppermint Green and was just what I was looking for; a must have for my closet. When I got this sweater, I got it a size larger so that I could pair it with leggings or skinnies if my heart desired. In the picture below you can see how comfy and cozy it is when I wore it to dinner with my sweet friend Zelle! No matter what color you get in this sweater (there are about seven options), it will be sure to provide you with a simple and classic look that will literally go with anything that you own!

3. I have to give props to Old Navy for yet another awesome find. I have had the hardest time in the past trying to find a pair of corduroy's that I like and when I tried these on, that was it. I had to have them. These cords are also slim at the bottom which makes them 10x more perfect! I may be making another trip back to Old Navy soon to pick up another pair in a different color...sorry, I'm not sorry.

4. For those of you who get cold easily like me, then this coat is for you. I purchased a coat similar to this one from Land's End last year and couldn't survive the winter weather without it! It is the perfect length (hits just above the knee), and provides just enough warmth against the cold air/wind with its down fill. The hood is also a snap off and the pockets are lined with soft fleece to keep your fingers toasty! What's not to love? And even better...Lands' End has extended their Friends and Family sale for one day! Use promo code FRIENDLY and Pin 3055 at checkout and save yourself some money!

5. A girl can never have to many pairs of tights or leggings and these tights from J.CREW are a must. The ribbing texture and wool blend make for a perfect tight that looks great with skirts and dresses. And this pair isn't to thick, and the price is spot on.

I hope you gals enjoyed finding out some of my current obsessions! There are TONS more that I have, but these are the ones that I feel are a must for every girls winter wardrobe. If there are other items that you just had to have for this season, please share! I'd love to find out what pieces you are obsessed with :)

I am obsessed with fleeced lined leggings from Flourish Boutique! I am a Florida girl, so I need a little extra to protect me from the cold! Those booties are ah-mazing, I need to go to Target and try them on.

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a comment! I will usually respond back to you via email (not here on the blog)...It's easier for me that way and hopefully it sparks a conversation for us! It makes me giddy that you're here and took the time to leave me a comment :)
